Changes in the Mortgage Market
Recent developments in the mortgage market have significant implications for first-time buyers. Nationwide has raised its borrowing limit to six times earnings, improving access to property for many. Previously, lenders like Halifax and Lloyds had increased their loan multipliers to five and a half times household income. This shift signals a trend of loosening lending practices, even as interest rates rise, and property prices remain high, indicating a changing landscape for potential homeowners.
